spanner Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Q3!?!? sheesh.. that's aaagggeeesss away! Quote
UN Spacy Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Wait...that stereo cockpit is $1,300?! Are y'all sure y'all didn't misplace that decimal?! Quote
jvmacross Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 9980 HKD and 8500 HKD to reserve it! I've yet to see any Macross item they have teased released and actually making me want to buy it....so I think I'll wait Quote
Major Focker Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 so in that ToySoul event this weekend, are they actually going to have the cockpits available for sale? or they'll just take pre-orders? any members going to that event? Quote
jvmacross Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 Based on the Google translation.....seems they will actually have 15 available...maybe those are the VF-1S versions as the teaser pics all show a VF-1J and so far they have only shown the Hikaru 1/6 figure....which I guess could also be used on the VF-1S cockpit.... Looking forward to pics or video of the actual product.... It's odd that the Kids Logic website doesn't even list Robotech or Macross as one of their licensed products.... Quote

Looking forward to pics or video of the actual product.... It's odd that the Kids Logic website doesn't even list Robotech or Macross as one of their licensed products.... Probably it will show up in the Robotech store instead as part of the deal with KidsLogic. But yeah, would love to see more photos of it and time to save. Since the 'Rick' figure will be available Q3 2017, then hopefully they will mass produce the cockpit for 2018 release? Quote
jvmacross Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 I received a response from Kids Logic regarding the cockpit....they said all pre-orders for the ToySoul 15 were sold-out......they didn't tell me anything about the "global" release of 500...... Wait and see I suppose.... Quote
hal9000 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I haven't seen anyone post this yet. I saw thist on twitter 1/4 Mirage coming soon. Quote
anime52k8 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I don't understand the point of making a figure 1/4 scale when you're going to have the same sculpt and paint quality as a 1/10 scale beach queens figure. Quote
Lolicon Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I don't understand the point of making a figure 1/4 scale when you're going to have the same sculpt and paint quality as a 1/10 scale beach queens figure. So you can charge a lot more money. Quote
Slave IV Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 And also have a bigger figure if that's what you want... Quote
no3Ljm Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) I haven't seen anyone post this yet. I saw thist on twitter 1/4 Mirage coming soon. Same scale as the Freyja one. Nice. But still... pass on the figures. But if it's Minmay... Hmmm. Edited December 13, 2016 by no3Ljm Quote
spanner Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Mirage in a bikini! not too bad! but 1/4 scale? not sure I would want that.. Quote
no3Ljm Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Mirage in a bikini! not too bad! but 1/4 scale? not sure I would want that.. Now, now, Spanner. You know that I know that everyone here knows that you want it for sure. Quote
spanner Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 hehe! I'll wait till I see a photo of the final painted example and see how I feel then! Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Any word on Rick's MSRP? I don't like the "certificate of authenticity" gimmick. Sounds like an excuse to charge extra. Quote
no3Ljm Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Any word on Rick's MSRP? I don't like the "certificate of authenticity" gimmick. Sounds like an excuse to charge extra. Let's hope that the price shown here from their previous display show is the final price. On other news... It's not a convention display anymore. HK$900 (US$116.04). From KidsLogic. Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted December 16, 2016 Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) $116 is not too bad for a 1/6 figure. I might get one. I hope we get to see Roy next. Edited December 16, 2016 by Lonely Soldier Boy Quote
Lolicon Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Alright, so over the Christmas break my Figuarts Zero Freyja arrived. It's a nice figure... ...except wtf is with the microscopic size?! Left to right: SQ game prize, Figuarts Zero, and Ichiban Kuji versions. This Freyja is noticeably smaller than previous Figuarts Zero releases but costs just much. 4500 yen for what is essentially a glorified trading figure. (I got mine on discount, fortunately.) Compared to a cheap Sheryl trading figure: Expect the upcoming Mirage figure to be the same tiny size, so heads up on whether or not you think it's worth 4 or 5k yen. Quote
eXis10z Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 I prefer the Ichiban Kuji version from the comparison pic above. Quote
Lolicon Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Keep in mind those are crane game prize figures. The final product will be substantially lower quality than those nice painted promo models. I have the previous Mikumo SQ figure and it's terrible. Her skin has a greenish tint to it. Maybe she's supposed to be part Zentradi? Quote
anime52k8 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 I hate prize figures so much. Makina looks so cute but I know better. Â Question though, when did Mikumo turn in to John Cena? Quote
Moosey Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 So far i am immune to all of the Delta figures except for Mirage....... Quote
David Hingtgen Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 From what I can see, the "January" release for Mirage means the very very end of Jan. Â Thus, will mean my HLJ warehouse shipping deadline will expire JUST before it arrives. Â I swear Bandai times everything to release like 61-65 days apart, just to ruin HLJ private warehouse shipments... Quote

no3Ljm Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 ^ Nice one Saburo! Now I have to get used on blue background for anime figures. Â Â Quote
abbadon Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Very nice, Saburo!  I've been looking into this and I'm finding it difficult to find a Kaname figure. Quote
